Song: Brave Mountaineers Tab
Brave Mountaineers
By Gordon Lightfoot
From the Don Quixote LP
Transcribed by Dan Nicholas
I use a Capo on the first fret.
[A] [G] [D] [A] [D]
[D]Born in the country & I [G]like that country [Em]smile
Of the [A]little girls & boys, they re[G]mind me of a [D]child
That I knew and a [G]big harvest [Em]moon
That shone by suppertime in the [G]dusty after[D]noon,
And I need to [G]be there when the autumn wind goes sin[D]ging
Through the trestle we would [A]climb
Like [D]brave mountain[G]eers we never were much [D]bothered by [A7]time.
Born in the country and I like that country song
We played for just a nickle every time we got to town
And I bought you a dime diamond ring
In the hayloft we would play we were princesses & kings
And I need to be there when the world get's too heavy
And the shadows cross my mind
Like Brave Mountaineers we never were much bothered by time
Born in the country and I like that country way
Of the uncles, aunts & cousins & the card games they would play
While the young ones slept overhead
Beneath the quilts that mother made when all the prayers were said
And I need to be there when the autumn wind goes singing
Through the trestle we would climb
Like Brave Mountaineers we never were much bothered by time
And I need to be there when the world get's too heavy
And the shadows cross my mind
Like Brave Mountaineers we never were much bothered by time
Dan
